For what it is worth, I have used StreamVia
https://www.streamvia.com/
for few years and in few different countries, including China and it is yet to let me down. The only UK website I could not access from abroad was National Lottery. I believe StreamVia has an option for live TV streaming in HD. It is a paid for service but if you are a frequent traveller you may justify
the cost.

VPNs are often very slow. Much faster, and a solution that works well
for me, is something called Smart DNS, which is essentially a
different set of  DNS
addresses. Both VPNs and DNS redirection will cost you a small amount
of money - ignore the so-called free offerings, they are usually very
slow and often not to be trusted.

That's the way it's always been. TV programmes are geo-restricted, but radio
programmes are not. You need to use a VPN which makes you appear to be in
the UK if you want to download TV programmes.

Cheers,

Hi - we were in Budapest recently with a fast wifi connection at the
IBIS hotel!!!

I tried the GiP PVR and did a cache refresh quickly and easily both
for Radio & T.V.

Then I ran the PVR list and this too went OK. For example it
downloaded the latest 'Beyond Our Ken' for 16-12-2018 which ended up
as:

Beyond_Our_Ken_-_From_4_6_1959_m0001k9d_original.m4a

File size                                 : 69.1 MiB
Duration                                 : 30 min 4 s
Overall bit rate mode             : Variable
Overall bit rate                       : 322 kb/s

Just the same as in the UK.

BUT ... no t.v. downloads.
